How I would want SMN to work.

[Siete]

I really like the trances and the Demi summons. This sounds too much like a BLM with a different effect. I wouldn’t mind them changing our spells to be more based off primals. Primal based DOTs. A filler spell based off primals

Demi-summons and trances are to stay imo.
Just make filler spell be dependant on the last egi skill used or something and combining different egis fill some sort of gauge to trance and trance to summon demi just like it works now.
